Based on what you have seen going back to LAST SEASON.....what makes you think this is just a funk?

From what I have seen there is no harm in putting in Yates or Keenum. I guarantee they won't throw 4 pick 6's in 4 games in a row and probably won't throw picks in what, the last 8 or 9 non preseason games going into last season?

Schaub's lucky it was only 1 pick 6 last game. There was another of the 3 picks he threw that should have been another pick 6 had the defender not had to juggle it to catch it.

Because based on his previous play Schaub has shown that he is better than this. I'm not a fan of Schaub, but he's not this terrible. Chances are if you put Yates or Keenum in, they aren't going to light the world on fire. Considering they're backups, they probably won't even be good. I think there's a better chance of Schaub improving and at least being marginally good as opposed to either of those guys don't much of anything. Like I said, if Schaub continues to regress though then it's a moot point since Yates and/or Keenum will see time.

And people actually had the audacity to argue that Kubiak would start Wilson or Kaepernick if they were on this team? Lol! Succers are born every minute and some just dwell in denial of certain realities. Kubiak has not changed since season one here. Same stubborn coach that never adapts to any new situation depending on the current team. He will always be stuck in his little vacuum style of coaching without being able to adjust. Sad that people still try to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Agreed. This is not a funk. This dates back to the last regular season game against the Colts, then the playoffs Bengals and Patriots and now 5 games this season, all with atleast 1 interception thrown. 8 GAME STREAK. This is not a funk

I applaud your optimism, I was the same way until this past Sunday. I still believe his arm went dead at the end of last season and now his mind is gone because he felt he could make up for it but he just cant.

"Well, yeah Matt is pretty goddamn terrible, but we paid him a lot of money and we are joined at the hip. And have you seen our backup quarterbacks? They are like a **** sandwich, with no bread, and extra ****. Seriously, what the **** were we thinking?"

Why didn't we keep All Pro returner Trindon Holliday after what, five games last year? He goes on to the Broncos and they haven't lost a regular-season game since. And he is looking like the best returner in NFL history. But Matt Schaub can have five bad games and he's still the starter, no problem. No accountability when it comes to #8. No need to even consider signing Peyton Manning a few off-seasons ago either. We have our great QB already.

Kubiak has about 6-7 years invested in Schaub. It is difficult to give that up. Deep down, I think he knows Schaub is done- physically and mentally- but he can't bring himself to make a change. He's incredibly loyal to Schaub, but he needs to look at the bigger picture: his loyalty needs to be to the organization which has allowed him to stay the head coach for 8 years while winning a grand total of 2 playoff games. He doesn't need to continue to be loyal to the player whose mistakes, if he is allowed to continue, will endanger Kubiak's employment.

Gary Kubiak and Marvin Lewis: Probably the only two head coaches in the NFL that have 100 % job security. They don't have to win in the playoffs. Heck, Marvin Lewis has done worse the past few years than Kubiak losing to the Texans in the wild-card game. But neither head coach will be fired.

I see the angle you're coming from and not assuming you're a Schaub fan and it would be ok if you were but it seems your main point (if I am reading it right) is that because Yates and Keenum are back ups they won't be good.

Schaub was a back up until Kubiak somehow decided he was "the 1" and we brought him over. There have also been other back ups who have gone on to be fine QB's so I can't look at it in that way.

I'm not saying Yates or Keenum will light the league on fire, but if they can keep their underwear clean and actually NOT $hit their pants I take that as a marked improvement. At this point Schaub does NOT give the Texans the best chance to win IMO. There is no one better to bring in at this point from the outside and frankly no one in the draft class this year has me touching myself so.....why not give Yates or Keenum a shot (preferably Keenum IMO which I laid out why in the In support of Case thread).

Yea ok and 15 yard penalties in the final moments against Sharpton and Jackson didn't play into it right? Good grief get a grip.

Only thing I like about playing Yates or Keenum is that they can make a play on the interceptions they will throw.
